YouTube removes excerpts from popular Comedy Central shows.

The excerpts from the show, rights to which belong to Comedy Central , are removed from the YouTube archive. Purge touched The Daily Show, The Colbert Report and South Park clips. On the pages where they were posted, there are marks "The material has been removed due to violation of the rules for using the service" and "The material has been removed due to copyright infringement"; The search index is also currently cleared of dead links.

The clips that are owned by CBS were deleted, most likely, as part of an agreement between YouTube and CBS, concluded shortly before Google purchased the service. It is also likely that the copyright holder sent a fairly accurate list of episodes that should be removed from the YouTube archives: some clips, for example, excerpts from the latest South Park series - World of Warcraft, are still available to users .
